As CURO's Vice President of Information Security, internet security and safety is my jam. With over 23 years of experience in information protection and over 35 years of IT and management experience, I know more than a thing or two about these paramount subjects. I received my Bachelor of Science summa cum laude in Computer Science from Wichita State and my master's degree in Business Administration from Friends University. I've earned numerous professional-level security certifications because that's the kind of thing I geek out on. I'm the founding and current president of the Central Plains Chapter of the Information Systems Security Association. Outside of the InfoSec game, I enjoy playing golf and guitar.

My profession-level security certifications include:

• • ISC2 Certified Information System Security Professional (CISSP)
• • ISACA Certified Information Security Manager (CISM)
• • ISACA Certified Information Systems Auditor (CISA)
• • ASIS Certified Protection Professional (CPP)
• • GIAC Certified Intrusion Analyst - Gold (GCIA)
• • GIAC Certified Enterprise Defender (GCED)
• • GIAC Certified Windows Security Administrator (GCWN)
